This is mildly troublesome.  What you really want in your switch is:

- dhcp option 82 support
- dhcp snooping
- DAI
- port security
- urpf on first hop
- RA guard / dhcpv6 snooping / ND guard if you're providing ipv6
- broadcast / multicast storm control
- lan broadcast segmentation for session hijack protection
- common L2 domain for public IP address assignment efficiency

note that the last two cannot easily be achieved without per-port dhcp
filtering.
